As for myself, I tested it in sungai liang, no matter how i tweaked it, my speed can reach maximum 1mbps which is way below the subscribe 3.5speed. When i tested the same modem in Kuala Belait, the speed can reach 200kbps like how eric has tested it. If you have problem on torrenting with Zoom!, it is most probably due to the incoming port issue. However, in Zoom! there is no way you can port forward for your torrent port, since i think bmobile basically block it anyway. No doubt, you can try to open port with your firewall, just to be in the same side that sometime my bmobile port is open, and sometime it's closed....

May I ask where are you using your Zoom!? Location and users within your area is an important factor with any mobile Internet service =) Do not that eSpeed is a dedicated bandwidth vs Zoom! which is shared, so if more people use Zoom! in your area, the speeds would decrease @ahjohnlah Thanks for the input!

I must said your blog is interesting to read and i love it. Keep up the good work. Recently i have espeed problem with their speed on the 9 of march. It doesn't reach the full speed until today at 12 of march. Here's the complaint i make: "I have been having problem with e-speed for the last two days. The problem look the same like few month ago where they published and blamed it is due to the faulty card. We, the customer has been complaining and what we have been advised is to test whether the espeed meter tester from brunet.bn is working. That doesn't justify our problem. Please get real that we are connecting to the world outside of problem. What's the point on testing to the headquater in brunei. Of course the speed is not having problem. Last the previous problem, we have been complaining for week but no action has been taken and a week problem, telbru publish in borneo bulletion stated it is due to faulty network card? We are not feeling that the telbru maintenance is up to the standard. So are we going to wait for another week in order to hear the problem is due to faulty card again?" Guess what? I think we have to wait another week then. BTW: keep up the good work. ^_^ Hello,
